The victims were among a larger crowd of partygoers outside the home on South Chappel, police said, citing early reports. The family barbecue was winding down with revelers gathered in the front and back yards of the home when a lone gunman emerged from a gangway across the street and opened fire, police said.

The victims included a 16-year-old boy who was wounded in the back and an 18-year-old man struck in the right elbow, police said.

A 51-year-old woman was wounded in the buttocks, while the girl suffered a graze wound to the left calf.

The girl was taken by a relative to nearby Advocate Trinity Hospital, while the other three were hospitalized. By 3 a.m., all of the victims were listed in good condition, police said.

After firing numerous shots, the shooter escaped through the gangway and remained at-large this morning. Police had only a vague description of the gunman and no clear motive for the shooting.

Officers at the scene dismissed an earlier report that two gunmen were present at the shooting.
